Named after the late-50s Jamaican music that paved the way for the punk and reggae music movements, Ska Brewery in Durango is more than a craft-beer powerhouse, Starting in 1995, owners Bill Graham and Dave Thibodeau prophetically jumped ahead of the microbrewery explosion, with the intention of preserving the creative essence of hops-to-libation conversion. Entering a market that had become overshadowed by corporate mega-producers, the brewers knew they had to set themselves apart by attaching their personalities to their beer.
The obvious choice was the music that inspired them, and from day one the duo has used live music as a means of celebrating the benchmarks of their craft. From the debut of their third beer ever, Ten Pin Porter, to last year's huge 17th anniversary party headlined by Reel Big Fish, Ska Brewery has made a point of attaching musicians to their grassroots success. The aforementioned ska legends, Reel Big Fish, were booked unconventionally – through a drinking session backstage at one of their shows – and the brewery's latest collaborative effort with a Washington, D.C. brew outfit came about after a favorable conversation on shared sonic interests.
This standout brewery now has an onsite beer garden that will host performances all summer. Although Ska Brewery may be the best incarnation of the tight relationship between booze and tunes, they are far from alone in becoming an entertainment and nightlife hub for Western Colorado communities.
With, as its mantra, "Brewing great beer is our passion, living life, full of friends, fun and great music is our pursuit," Dolores River Brewery is an obvious standout among the beer and music pairing institutions. Weekly concerts boast top state and national touring acts hailing from Utah to Kansas, and often feature accomplished artists on the brink of breaking out of the regional circuit. All summer long, quality brands of bluegrass, rock, gospel and folk tend to dominate the self-built outdoor stage in the appropriately dubbed Hopyard. Beyond their half-dozen year-round beer selections, curious brews like Cascadian Black Ale and Jamaican Sweet Brown help round out the seasonal menu, and can be enjoyed with an extensive homemade wood-oven pizza selection.
Grand Junction's Rockslide Brewpub is that city's oldest brewpub, and it offers a good excuse to partake on just about every holiday, from St. Patrick's Day to New Year's Eve. In addition to serving as the perfect watering hole for sports spectating, Rockslide hosts awesomely obscure events like women's arm wrestling, ninja trivia and beer pong/flip cup tournaments. On Saturday nights, live music is mandatory, and ranges from folk duos to hip DJs. Brewer Dr. Z makes sure that all events are curated with one of their six year-round brews, like Widowmaker Wheat or Kokopelli Cream Ale, in mind.
The award-winning Telluride Brewing Company makes its musical influences known from the second you enter the brew building. Behind the bar, and adjacent to large vats filled with Facedown Brown ale and Tempter IPA, is a custom mural of the iconic Steal Your Face logo made popular by The Grateful Dead. Beyond providing numerous summer regional music festivals with tasty brews, it is not uncommon for revered musicians like Dave Bruzza of Greensky Bluegrass to perform intimate solo acoustic sets from the brewing platform. If local bands aren't filling in the live music gaps, then great tunes are always coming from the speakers, to provide the soundtrack for thirsty visitors all summer long.
Two Rascals in Montrose is one of the Western Slope's youngest brewpubs, but has nonetheless quickly become the entertainment hub for the town. There is literally something scheduled every night, with live music ranging from a Jazzology residency on Saturdays to acoustic Tuesdays. In between tunes, the friendly staff serves up cold pints for trivia night and exclusive movie screenings – and hosts an artist during the townwide art crawls. Monday's $1 taco nights are also popular.

Summary of Flygirl Summary of Flygirl Reviews for Flygirl An Excerpt from Flygirl
All Ida Mae Jones wants to do is fly. Her daddy was a pilot, and years after his death she feels closest to him when she's in the air. But as a young black woman in 1940s Louisiana, she knows the sky is off limits to her, until America enters World War II, and the Army forms the WASP - Women Airforce Service Pilots. Ida has a chance to fulfill her dream if she's willing to use her light skin to pass as a white girl. She wants to fly more than anything, but Ida soon learns that denying one's self and family is a heavy burden, and ultimately it's not what you do but who you are that's most important."A dynamic, heartfelt novel." - The Washington Post
"A thrilling, but little-known story that begs to be told. The book is at once informative and entertaining." - School Library Journal

The top-selling R&B trio of all time had the ladies swooning with some of their romantic ballads and the whole audience clapping and singing along to some Motown classics.
Dressed in sharp suits, Shawn Stockman, Nathan Morris and Wayna Morris opened the 8 p.m. show with their dance hit "Motown Philly," the debut single off the group's 1991 album "Cooleyhighharmony." After two more of their own songs, "On Bended Knee" and "Perfect Love Song," the trio launched into a series of classic Motown songs, a la their 2007 album "Motown: A Journey Through Hitsville USA." Incorporating dance moves straight out of the 1960s, the Boyz performed some rousing renditions of Smokey Robinson's "Track of My Tears," Stevie Wonder's "Just My Imagination," WAR's anti-war anthem "War" and a Barrett Strong song made famous by The Beatles, "Money (That's What I Want)."
After the group's Motown history lesson, Stockman gave the crowd a brief history of Boyz II Men, talking about the group's genesis in high school before performing more Boyz songs: "Please Don't Go," "Water Runs Dry" and "I'll Make Love To You" during which Stockman and the two Morrises handed out roses to elated ladies who rushed the stage.
The song that became a common high school prom theme during the 1990s, "End of the Road," was also the show's ending song, before the Boyz came out for an encore performance of "Motown Philly."
The audience was filled with long-time fans who swooned and sang along with most of the songs. For those of us in the audience who grew up more on oldies than our own generation's music, the flashback portion was particularly entertaining and the group's contemporary vocal stylings blended well with the classic songs. The dance moves that accompanied the oldies were obviously done to channel the spirit of the original performances, but the dance routines to the group's own music seemed forced at times.
Perhaps they should tone down the dancing a bit and stick with the "men" part of Boyz II Men, just as they abandoned the baggy jeans and backwards hats of their "boyz" days. Stockman and Wayna Morris did both take time to thank the fans for their years of loyalty, which was nice to hear and showed their maturity, even if their dancing was sometimes not so dignified.
All told, it was an entertaining show that fans at tonight's performance will surely enjoy.

It is interesting that the Daily Post makes every effort to post heart-warming, kind and thoughtful articles on the front page while publishing the exact opposite on your editorial page.Dick Yarbrough spews toxic and hateful venom that is unfit for consumption. Viewpoints should have some redeeming value -- unfortunately, Yarbrough's views reflect a very angry and spiteful spirit that contribute little to our public need for integrity and kindness. He should take to heart the headline of Ronda Rich's column -- "There is an abundance of kindness in the South." But Yarbrough will claim once again that he is just trying to be funny. That "viewpoint" doesn't work anymore. -- Bob Berlon Buford

The RackConnect API provides a way for you to access certain read-only information about your Cloud Servers and their RackConnect configuration. The RackConnect API is available to all customers who can manage their RackConnect configurations through MyRackspace Portal interface.
You can use the RackConnect API to access the following information:
Note:In addition to using the RackConnect API, you can now use the Cloud Servers API to query the RackConnect automation status of your next-generation Cloud Servers. The benefit of using the Cloud Servers API is that you do not need to perform the query from the same Cloud Server you want the status of. The limitations of this method are that only the RackConnect automation status is available, and this method is compatible only with next-generation Cloud Servers. If you are interested in this method, see the following article: How to programmatically determine the RackConnect Automation Status of your Cloud Servers.
The RackConnect API is exposed via regional endpoints. Use the endpoint that matches the region where your Cloud Server resides.
Note: The URLs for each API operation include a version number. When future versions of the calls available, this article will be updated. It is important to note that this version number does not relate to the version of RackConnect that you are using.
The RackConnect API authenticates all requests based on the source IP address that is initiating the request. The API endpoints are exposed only on the Private (ServiceNet) network, so the Private (ServiceNet) network IP address of your Cloud Server is used to determine the source of the request and to respond with the appropriate information. API responses are limited to information only about the specific Cloud Server from which you are querying. It is important to note that hypervisor-level protections are in place that prevent these IP addresses from being spoofed, ensuring that the instance making the request to the API endpoint is, in fact, your Cloud Server.
Note: You cannot query the RackConnect API from outside of your Cloud Server.
There is a limit of 30 requests per minute from each of your Cloud Servers. If you exceed the number of allowed requests per minute, you will receive an HTTP 403 (Forbidden) response code. The counter resets each minute.
The following operations are supported by the API. The format query string parameter is optional on each request. If it is not supplied, the default response format is used.
GET /v1/automation_status?format={format}
GET /v1/automation_status/details?format={format}
GET /v1/gateway_ip?format={format}
GET /v1/automation_features?format={format}
The following example uses curl to retrieve the automation status. Alternatively, you can use a web browser to query the RackConnect API.
$ curl https://dfw.api.rackconnect.rackspace.com/v1/automation_status?format=text

Great Place - Friendly Staff – My wife and I visit Vegas about 4-6 times a year. In March 2008 we ate at Fusia and loved it. The food was excellent, the service was also excellent. We had an unusual surprise as Chris Angel sat behind us with a few friends. Seemed like a very nice guy. Our waiter suggested we go get a picture, but we let him eat in peace. Overall a very nice place to eat. We will be back for sure.
Interesting high class food – The ambience of Fusia is very good and the design resembles of Lo Sagrado in Bilbao, Spain. Having the traditional contemporary dishes with east asian ingredients results a jackpot.
The idea of using japanese sweet potatoe puree along with filet mignon on bone along with red wine sauce is a marquee. The wine list is quite generous with highly trained head maitre and with perfect setting of low lighted dining area. The fellow guest oozing with charisma and executive level of guests. The restaurant is an excellent place if you decide to bring your loved one for a romantic dinner, allowing the menu tease the tastebuds with enjoyable ingredients.
Nonetheless, some dishes with did illustrate little too much of butter, like the haricort vertes, but an overall good place to visit.
great service, great atmosphere, great food – Nice menu of fusion/asian food with some other dishes. The wasabi mashed potatoes were excellent. The $10 California Rolls were very good as well. there was about 10 rolls on the appetizer, I was expecting only a few. The spring rolls are served cold, which put an interesting twist on the typical spring roll. My NY strip was slightly over cooked from my medium rare, but was nice nonetheless. They also have a nice selection of Cold Sakes. My wife was feeling ill so we didnt even look at the dessert menu. Overall it was a great meal

LINCOLN — Don't look for a two-day postponement in the Nebraska men's basketball game against Iowa to faze coach Tim Miles.
As someone raised in South Dakota and who has coached in Minnesota, North Dakota and Colorado, weather-related delays are nothing new.
"It's just part of the game," Miles said Wednesday. "Where I grew up and coached, this happens on a regular basis. Just a slight adjustment and proceed accordingly.
"The only difficult part is the short turnaround for the Wisconsin game."
The Huskers (12-14, 3-10) — after hosting Iowa (17-9, 6-7) at 1 p.m. Saturday instead of Thursday night — now will have just two days of preparation before playing at Wisconsin next Tuesday.
The schedule change also altered the coaching staff's recruiting plans for the week, but Miles called that disruption a minor blip.
Nebraska is dealing with a new injury this week, but it's on the coaching staff.
Assistant Craig Smith suffered a broken nose during a drill in which he uses a large foam pad to push players who are working on inside position. Freshman forward Shavon Shields muscled past the pad and accidentally smacked Smith.
"Coach Smith's just not tough enough. I'm not sure we're going to keep him," Miles joked. "He didn't think he was going to have it reset, but then he decided today to have it done.
"The handsome and debonair Craig Smith can't have a little crease in his nose."
The Nebraska-Iowa game was originally set to be shown on ESPN2. Because of the date change, it will no longer be on TV, but will be broadcast on
Tickets from Thursday night are good for Saturday. Other tickets are on sale for $10 and $15.

Reviews for Cajun Chicken & Rice Soup(14)
Sort By :
My husband and I absolutely love soup, and this is one of our favorites! I love how it has rice and beans -- very comforting and delicious!
IT is simply awesome. I made it for my dinner club friends last night and we LOVED it. Just the right amount of heat and lots of flavor.
What a fantastic recipe! Kids definitely approved. I used fresh tomatoes and canned green chilies...improvised on the Cajun seasoning. But, what a great fresh-tasting soup! Leftovers are already in the freezer for another day. Next time, though, I will wait to put the cilantro in last...to add the "fresh" cilantro taste. Yum!
This is our all time favorite soup....all year!
Oops - I forgot to add the orange juice, skipped the cajun seasoning & rice, used canned navy beans, and browned boneless chicken breast. Used boxed chicken stock and the prep was 1 hour. Used a crockpot for cooking, 4 hours on high. Smelled so good when I came home from visiting our grandkids.

Standby Guardianship
Standby guardianship involves the appointment of a future legal guardian for children whose parents may soon be unable to care for them due to illness or other life-threatening events. The following resources discuss situations for which standby guardianship may be appropriate, including State and local examples.

|Standby Guardianship
|Series Title:
|State Statutes
|Child Welfare Information Gateway
Download (PDF - 354KB)
|Year Published:
|2011 - 43 pages
|Examines State standby guardianship laws in which a parent may transfer guardianship of his or her child to a specific person under certain conditions. Many States developed these laws specifically to address the needs of parents living with HIV/AIDS, other disabling conditions, or terminal illnesses who want to plan a legally secure future for their children. A standby guardianship differs from traditional guardianships in that the parent retains much of his or her authority over the child. This publication covers the establishment of standby guardianship, the noncustodial parents, parental authority, and withdrawal of guardianship.

Schultz responds to Barnhart questions
The Columbus Dispatch - June 07, 2012 5:06 PM
Franklin County Democratic chairman Greg Schultz authored an email today apparently in response to county party central committee and executive committee members who wrote him demanding an explanation of payments made to fundraiser Melissa Barnhart.
Only Schultz didn't answer the question that's central to the mutiple inquiries into why Barnhart was paid $20,500 since March, 2011 -- right after Schultz became chairman -- for work she says she did in 2007 and 2009 that was never documented: How does he know she's owed the money?
"When I assumed the Chair's role in early 2011 I became aware of a number of outstanding payments due to various entities, including back rent of more than $10,000," Schultz wrote in his email, sent to the entire Franklin County Democratic central and executive committees.
"I also became aware that payment for work by Melissa Barnhart completed in 2007 and 2009 on behalf of the Democratic coordinated campaign races had been deferred. We immediately began to pay down all the outstanding obligations through expanding our fundraising and saving costs on items like phones, rent, and copy charges. All of the payments made to Melissa Barnhart, the Ohio Democratic Party, and other entities due payment have been reported in a timely fashion within our campaign finance reports."
The three former party officials Barnhart said could vouch for the debt she was owed all failed to do so when contacted by The Dispatch. Carole DePaola, a central committee member, wrote to Schultz declaring she would no longer donate money or volunteer for the party "until Melissa Barnhart is no longer the party fundraiser."
A second letter, from executive committee member and former Democratic state Rep. Marian Harris of Columbus, said: "I'm writing to express my total disappointment and distress at the state of the county party. The Melissa Barnhart situation is unacceptable. I totally agree with the letter to you written by Carole DePaola."
Both women demanded explanations from Schultz. Also, Harris questioned whether Schultz could serve as both county Democratic chair and the state director for President Barack Obama's re-election campaign in Ohio.
"Our Party is hard at work taking advantage of the organization and enthusiasm that comes with each Presidential election year – the relationships that our Party is building because of the Obama Campaign's effort will lead to the continued resurgence of grassroots organizing for years to come, ensuring short term and long term success for local and statewide Democrats if we are successful in growing our party in 2012," Schultz wrote.
Schultz did not respond to a message seeking comment.

It can even come about that a created will cancels out, not perhaps the exertion, but the result of divine action; for in this sense, God himself has told us that God wishes things which do not happen because man does not wish them! Thus the rights of men are immense, and his greatest misfortune is to be unaware of them.

Franklin - A Milwaukee County parks employee who responded to the scene of yet another report of a cougar sighting on the Oak Leaf Trail last week said he discovered evidence that may link a big cat to the area.
According to the Franklin police log:
A Franklin resident reported that his wife saw a cougar near the Oak Leaf Bike Trail about 9:30 a.m. Friday. The caller's wife stated she saw a cougar walking south, crossing Puetz Road between 51st Street and the trail.
Although no cougar was found, a county parks employee checked the area and said he found what appeared to be cougar tracks and possible cougar scat (droppings) along the grass trail close to the river - but no tracks or other evidence was found along the hardened bike trail.
After talking with the witness, the parks employee verified the animal described by the woman was a cougar and that the tracks were found in the area where she allegedly saw the big cat.
Police in Franklin, Hales Corners and Oak Creek have all received reports from residents who say they have seen a cougar or other large, wild cat in their municipality within the past month:
A cougar or mountain lion was reported in the 6700 block of West Rawson Avenue about 10:30 a.m. Nov. 18.
A bobcat or lynx was reported by the Oak Leaf Trail in the 6400 block of West Drexel Avenue at 4 a.m. Dec. 1.
A 200- to 300-pound cougar was sighted in the area of Howell Avenue and Elm Road about 7:25 p.m. Dec. 1.
A cougar was reported by a Hales Corners resident in the 11000 block of West Forest Home Avenue shortly after 10 p.m. Dec. 13.
A call to the Milwaukee County Parks Department employee who reportedly found the tracks and other evidence Friday was not returned as of Tuesday.

Alabama didn't always look sharp but had too much for Arkansas' defense.
Among the most notable performances was that of running back Kenyan Drake, who showed his skills on a 46-yard TD run after breaking two tackles at the line of scrimmage in the second quarter. He rushed for 85 yards and two scores in the first half alone.
Also notable was wide receiver Amari Cooper's first touchdown catch of the season, on a 30-yard lob from AJ McCarron.
Alabama allowed some first downs between the 20-yard lines but largely dominated Arkansas. A coverage bust and a fake punt allowed Arkansas to make a couple of drives, but they died without points.
The matchup of Arkansas' run-oriented offense and Alabama's run defense went as expected, as Arkansas wasn't able to do enough in the passing game to offset it. What Arkansas got done in the passing game came largely because of the first-quarter injury to safety Vinnie Sunseri.
Special teams
On the bad side, Alabama's punt-receiving team allowed a fake-punt conversion in the second quarter, as Arkansas punter Sam Irwin-Hill took the snap and ran to a wide-open left side.
On the upside, Deion Belue kept points off the board by blocking a Zach Hocker field goal attempt in the second quarter.
Also, Alabama's kickoff team forced and recovered a Keon Hatcher fumble to start the second half. Derrick Henry caused it, and Eddie Jackson recovered.
A solid overall effort.
There wasn't much secret what Alabama had to do on defense, and the Crimson Tide stopped the run.
Offensively, coordinator Doug Nussmeier dialed up a nice mix, with 14 runs for 132 yards and 16 passes for 138 in the decisive first half. The goal was to control tempo offensively, and Alabama did.
It was a par performance against an overmatched opponent.
The soft middle of Alabama's schedule continues to be soft as Alabama won its fifth straight game by at least 25 points.
Perhaps the best news for Alabama is the sense that this season is finally starting to feel like last season, as the Crimson Tide piles up routs headed into its Nov. 9 showdown with LSU.
The competition has something to do with it, but it looks like Alabama is hitting form after much handwringing over early season problems on the offensive line and secondary. The Tide is rounding into form for its next big test.

If the Gamecocks wanted to insert themselves into this year's FCS playoff picture, they had to beat the Colonels – and, for the sake of style points, the bigger the better.
No one expected it to be that big.
The Gamecocks routed the Colonels 68-10, dominating all three phases of the game.
They ran all over the Ohio Valley Conference's best rushing defense and held the league's best rushing attack to only 111 yards.
Quarterback Eli Jenkins rushed for 120 yards and three touchdowns to earn OVC offensive player and newcomer of the week, while running backs DaMarcus James and Troymaine Pope each ran for two scores. Linebacker Ketrick Wolfe scored a defensive touchdown, the defense had four takeaways and six sacks (two by emerging linebacker Michael Carlisle) and kicker Griffin Thomas boomed a record-tying 52-yard field goal among his 14 points. The OVC tapped Thomas as its special teams player of the week.
"Going back and watching the film, it was what we thought it was," JSU coach Bill Clark said. "The biggest thing was the urgency, the physicality (and) the emotion all met together. We told them when you put all these together this is what can happen.
"We really tried to look at ourselves and say … what can we do to play our best? Is there anything we can tweak? We did some self-evaluation and look what happens when you respond with energy, emotion and concentration."
Some people still don't seem convinced the Gamecocks (8-2, 4-2 OVC) are worthy of playoff consideration.
The Sports Network, recognized for having its finger on the pulse of FCS football, lists Eastern Illinois and Tennessee State as the two OVC reps in its 24-team bracket projection that changes weekly.
TSU replaced EKU in media outlet's latest guestimate. The Tigers, who did beat JSU a month ago, only beat one of the worst teams in the country to jump back into the bracket – one week after being swamped by the team the Gamecocks annihilated Saturday.
Right now, there are four OVC teams with two league losses and JSU has the fewest overall losses among them. They have league-leading Eastern Illinois and a home date with Southeast Missouri remaining. TSU only has this week's season finale with Murray State left.
Clark said he hasn't started looking at the playoff implications in depth.
If playing well at the selection time counts for anything, the Gamecocks have won their last three games by a combined 144-34.
"We're determined to be in," he said. "Let's just take care of what we have to. Let's just hope we can do the things either to put us in for sure or impress them enough to give us a chance."
If the Gamecocks can pull a repeat of Saturday this week at EIU, there's no way to keep them out of the field.
The Panthers (9-1, 6-0) are the No. 2-ranked FCS team in the country worthy of all the adjectives that have been bestowed on them. Behind quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo, they rank No. 1 nationally in total offense and scoring offense and No. 2 in passing offense.
Garoppolo, who Clark is convinced will be "a star at the next level," is the OVC career leader in total offense, passing yards, completions and touchdown passes. He leads all Division I players (FCS or FBS) with 3,843 passing yards and 40 touchdown passes this season.
He threw for only 299 yards Saturday against Murray State – the first time this year he didn't pass for 300 yards or more.
The Panthers can clinch the outright OVC title by beating the Gamecocks.
"As big a challenge as we thought last week was, this is double that," Clark said.
